Cross and Yun Che both covered their noses, Cross turned around before he was beaten to death by his wife. Luna looked at the girl and frowned as she said "She's super poisonous." Luna walked over and touched the girl a few times before saying "This is the strongest poison I've ever seen!"
Cross walked over with Yun Che and they both nodded as they said "Right, yeah." Luna added "Seems like she was in a fight too." the duo both nodded and said in unison "Right, yeah, for sure." Luna shook her head and said "I'd be surprised if she survives. She's just a soul now, unless you know how to reform a body, she will die even if you do cure her."
Luna looked up and saw both of them gushing blood from their noses with their hands on their chins in a thinking pose. Luna felt her entire being twitch with anger, Cross wiped his nose and touched the girl's stomach as he said "Even her soul is poisoned..." he slowly grinned and stared at the girl.
There was no longer a girl in front of him but a giant information booklet on all the strong people. Cross stood up and drooled as he mumbled "So many strong people..." Luna slapped her forehead with a small smile, why was she worried again?
Yun Che frowned "It's really that bad?" Luna nodded and said "I assume this place had a detox effect? I can feel it. If she's in here, then she should be fine, but she will never be allowed to leave." Cross added "Can I search her memories?" Luna and Yun Che both said "No!"
Cross clicked his tongue and said "But, she's a literal walking bookshelf!" Luna slapped him and said "Her soul is so weak, you might just make her soul collapse!" Cross grumbled and said "When she's healthy then..." he looked at Yun Che, who backed away and said "I have disgusting secrets! I piss in the shower!"
Cross burst out laughing and slapped him saying "I can search your memories systematically. I won't see everything, I can pick and choose. Plus it won't hurt you even a little bit. Maybe later though. For now, let's go Luna." he looked at Yun Che and asked "What are you going to do now?"
Yun Che scratched his head and said "I don't know, probably sleep outside. That Ice block of a wife I have won't let me sleep in the same bed as her anyway." Cross shook his head and said "She's too arrogant. I think you should just forget about her, she's a loser. Think about it, she's so weak and yet she thinks she's at the top of the world because of some Immortal palace or whatever, what a joke."
Yun Che was confused and said "You heard that?" Cross nodded and said "Her master is even worse! What is that Frozen moron palace anyway?" Yun Che chuckled and said "An all girl Sect. We haven't gotten to sects yet. Basically, they aren't allowed emotions for their Ice Arts."
Cross' eyes widened as he said "They lock away their emotions?!" Yun Che nodded, Cross and Luna looked at each other before bursting into laughter. Yun Che was confused and Cross wiped his eyes as he said "What a bunch of retards! HAHAHAHAH They think they'll be stronger without emotions?!"
He fell over with tears as he laughed so hard his stomach hurt.
Yun Che chuckled and didn't understand but he thought it was quite ridiculous as well.
Cross got up and sighed as he chuckled a bit before saying "Wow. I can't believe I thought they had capable people there. I'm an idiot. They're so arrogant and they seal their emotions away..." he started laughing again before saying "All the more reason to forget about this girl, just let her ruin her life, who cares. She's pretty but she has no brains."
He patted Yun Che's shoulder and said "Where we're from, powerful emotions fuel your power. True love will only make you stronger. Plus, going through life without emotions.. What's the point? You might as well die."
Cross' eyes lit up and he grinned evilly as he said "Hehehehe, I still have a few buckets of Veela blood. Hehehe." Luna trembled and said "You wouldn't!" Cross smirked evilly as he said "I will! Let's see how emotionless they can be after they become Veela."
Yun Che said "What's a Veela?" Cross wrapped his arm around Yun Che's shoulder as they all teleported out and Cross said "Let me tell you something about my world..." he explained what a Veela was and Yun Che gasped at the implications of turning a cold woman into a Veela.
Cross chuckled evilly and said "Who gave these ants the right to be arrogant? I don't remember doing it!" Luna rolled her eyes and said "You don't even know where that place is." Cross rubbed his chin and muttered "One day I will find it... That's the day, they all turn to Veela! I swear it!"
Luna sighed and said "Yeah, yeah, and the world will tremble in your achievement..." Yun Che chuckled and gave Luna a thumbs up, Cross waved and said "Anyway, Lingxi is coming. See you tomorrow, Yun Che. Maybe you can tour my castle tomorrow." before disappearing with Luna.
Lingxi showed up and Yun Che smiled in her direction.
Luna and Cross reappeared in their room, Luna ran to the closet and got her whip and handcuffs. Cross resigned himself to fate and cursed his big mouth as Luna giggled excitedly.
The next day
Cross reappeared with Luna on the mountain, Cross rubbed his chest while Luna looked refreshed. She was wearing the same style clothes but different colors, while Cross looked like he just got up. He had a black hoodie, white t-shirt, black shorts with a red devil smiley face on the bottom corner, and fluffy pink slippers.
Cross yawned and walked back to the Xiao clan with Luna skipping next to him, happy as can be.
Cross walked into a dining hall of sorts, feeling Yun Che inside, Xiao Lie rushed out and greeted Cross with a nod. Cross waved in his direction before walking inside the building. He immediately heard "If you touch my body again, I won't be polite!"
Cross felt a nameless anger at this stupid woman and his expression turned evil. He waved his hand and strung up Xia Qingyue tightly before making her walk to Yun Che and kiss his lips forcefully. Yun Che was stunned but Qingyue was even more stunned than him, and truly scared.
She heard a demonic growl "Next time you act arrogant, I will make you 'offer' your purity to him with both hands. Understand, ant?" Xia Qingyue trembled in fear and the strings disappeared, she stepped back and her face was as red as an apple.
Cross pretended to just walk in and said "Look at the two love birds~ In the dining hall no less!" as he sat down and started eating, Luna rolled her eyes but this stupid girl was getting on her nerves too. Seriously, why was she so arrogant for?
Yun Che looked at Qingyue and touched his lips as he said "Very strange." Qingyue opened her mouth and it was sealed shut forcefully. She almost cried, she felt like a puppet. Cross couldn't care less, she would've already been dead had it not been for Luna.
Yun Che forgot about it and smiled as he ate breakfast, talking with Cross happily. Feeling good that she kissed him, obviously he knew something was going on, but her arrogance was starting to annoy him too. She was a fraction of his previous strength, does she think she owns the heavens?
She truly disliked her personality, therefore he just stopped talking to her. Only talking with Luna and Cross instead as they all ignored her.
This made Qingyue feel awful. None of them even spared a glance in her direction, her own husband even slept outside with his little aunt last night. She obviously forgot that she kicked him out of the room and didn't let him sleep in the bed.
Qingyue ate quietly, looking like a wilted flower. Too bad her performance was wasted on people who couldn't care less.
After a while of eating.
Xiao Lie rushed back in and had a heavy mood. Yun Che said "What's wrong, gramps?" Xiao Lie said "Big things, fortunately this has nothing to do with you all." Yun Che asked "What is it?" Xiao Lie responded "The Xiao Sect is sending people here to pick from the clan to train at the Xiao Sect!"
Yun Che frowned and said "Why would they do that? They had the Xiao clan." Cross asked "You have the same surname, are you related?" Yun Che replied "Branch of the family that was expelled." Cross said "Oh." before thinking about something.
Xiao Lie said "Yes, but the punishment elder was our founder's father and he felt bad for banishing his son so he sent people to take a few back." Cross said "EH?! What kind of father is this? Just refuse them." Yun Che looked at Cross and had to agree as he said "Yeah. We haven't needed their help till now, not that they even care, why would we need it now? Tell them to shove it."
Cross chuckled and high-fived Yun Che, who also chuckled. Xiao Lie sighed and said "It's not that simple. They aren't coming with good intentions... Anyway, let's eat and forget about this nonsense."
A while later
They finished eating and Yun Che, Luna, Cross, and Qingyue walked outside, but Qingyue was ignored. She hadn't spoken and looked quite sad actually, even Yun Che ignored her, which made her stunned.
She walked away using her profound stepping technique, but Cross tripped her and she slammed face first into the ground. Cross chuckled and ignored her as he walked away with Yun Che. Qingyue sat on the ground and cried before running away.
Cross really wanted to shred her to pieces but calmed himself and let out a deep breath, thinking that he had been getting more and more angry since he got here. Feeling like he had to let loose on something, the thing is he might accidentally kill an entire city of people if he let loose, which was not ideal.
Cross walked into Lingxi's room with Luna and Yun Che and Lingxi covered her red face saying "Little Che! I'm embarrassed!" Cross chuckled and sat next to her saying "So what if you have feelings for Little Che?" Lingxi covered her face with a flustered look, Yun Che said "So what if I accidentally, when I was sleeping, grabbed your breast."
Lingxi shrieked and hid under the table as Cross and Yun Che laughed, Cross picked her up and said "Eh? Silly girl, rejoice! You are actually not the same blood as Y-Xiao Che!" Yun Che said "What?! Really!?" even Lingxi was stunned.
Cross cut Lingxi's small finger and Yun Che's before doing a little ritual, the blood repelled from each other. Cross said "If you were family then the blood would mi-" Yun Che shot over the table and kissed Lingxi's lips.
Luna burst out laughing and Cross smiled as he said "There you go. Now you can have a real wife. Not that disgusting filth." Yun Che sighed "She's still my wife in name." Cross grumbled and said "When you decide otherwise, her life ends."
Yun Che sighed and said "Well anyway, Little aunt, you're mine now~" Lingxi was flustered and shy as she squeaked "Mmm." Cross decided to leave with Luna.
Cross walked outside and grabbed Luna's hand as he said "Wanna go do something fun?" Luna rolled her eyes and had a feeling what the 'fun' was.
Sure enough.
Cross teleported to a tree branch and sat down above Qingyue, watching her beat up some guy he couldn't be bothered to remember the name of. Luna sighed and said "Can't you leave her alone? She was crying before." Cross said "If she kills herself I will still laugh. Her and that idiotic master of hers."
Luna said "Ahhh. I see. You're still angry, is that it?" Cross decided not to answer and Luna sighed as she said "I'm worried about you, baby. You've been getting angrier and angrier since we got here..." Cross sighed and replied "I realized this. I have no idea what's wrong.." Luna leaned her head on his shoulder and smiled "We'll get through it together as always~"
Cross smiled lovingly and kissed her head as he whispered "Thank you, Luna." Luna smiled softly and replied "Anything for you my love." Cross caressed her hand with his thumb gently as he turned his attention back to Qingyue, who just now looked up to meet his gaze.
